How to Get Player Identifiers for GTA FiveM
What are Player Identifiers?
Player Identifiers are unique ID numbers used by FiveM to identify players for actions like bans and whitelisting. These identifiers must follow a specific format to be recognized by the server when entered manually. Below, we’ll cover the different identifier formats and how to obtain them.
Player Identifier Types
There are multiple types of player identifiers, but the Cfx team recommends using FiveM IDs for the best security, with Discord IDs as the second-best option. Some server owners use multiple ID formats when banning players to make evasion more difficult.
Type ID | Provider | Type | Data Type |
---|---|---|---|
fivem | Cfx.re | User ID | int |
discord | Discord | User ID | int |
steam | Steam | Steam ID | hex |
license | Rockstar Online Services | Hash | hex |
license2 | Rockstar Online Services | Hash | hex |
ip | IP Address | IPv4 | string |
xbl | Xbox Live | - | int |
live | Microsoft PUID | Passport Unique Identifier | int |
How to Find Player Identifiers
When a player joins a FiveM server, their identifiers are stored in the server database and logged in the console (e.g., Nodecraft's server control panel). Server admins can retrieve them there.
🛑Note: We highly recommend using the FiveM ID option, as it provides the highest level of security. The Steam ID option should only be used as a last resort, as it offers the least security.
If players need to find their own identifiers (e.g., for whitelist applications), they can follow the instructions below:
